发明名称 INTERNET FILE SYSTEM
摘要 A method and a system in which a computing system transparently accesses resources connected to the Internet. A memory of the computing system contains an operating system, a cache associated with the operating system, a shared library and an access server. The shared library is responsive to a system call for a file by determining whether a path name for the file is located under a personal name space in the memory and by issuing a request for retrieving the file from an Internet resource based on the path name located under the personal name space when the file is not stored in the cache and has a path name located under the personal name space. An access server, in response to the request from the shared library, selects an appropriate access protocol for retrieving the file from the Internet resource and retrieves the file from the Internet resource. The shared library then issues the system call to the operating system when the access server retrieves the file. The access server restores the file to the Internet resource when the application closes the file.
